CHENNAI, India, May 24, 2010 - Sify Technologies Limited (Nasdaq NM: SIFY), a leader in
Enterprise and Consumer Internet Services in India with global delivery
capabilities, and Gulf Bridge International (GBI), Qatar, today signed an
agreement to land GBI's sub-sea cable system in India.

Gulf Bridge International (GBI), the Middle East's first
privately owned submarine cable operator, also announced that Sify will
provide a landing station for GBI's cable in Mumbai, India.

The GBI cable system, which will connect all the countries of
the Gulf region to each other, will provide onward connectivity to India and
beyond via Sify's landing station. The launch of GBI's cable system will
provide telecom operators and other communications companies, both in the
region and globally, greater choice, value, diversity and resilience.

"We are delighted to announce that GBI have selected Sify to
be our landing partner in India. As one of India's leading internet
communications companies, Sify is well placed to ensure that GBI's cable
system is fully integrated into the expanding Indian domestic market,"
commented Mr. Hamad Al Mannai, Executive Vice Chairman of GBI. "We are
looking forward to a long and successful relationship with Sify," he added.

"Access to Undersea Cable System will allow SIFY Technologies
to serve the emerging markets in the Middle East as well as the African
region, which are also amongst the fastest growing economies in the world.
This allows SIFY to enable a reliable and secure information superhighway to
connect the Middle East to Asia Pacific & the Americas, thus bringing in
superior network connectivity to the Middle East & African regions. Sify
further strengthens its position as a leading ICT player by combining its
existing Data Center, Network and Application services with the opportunities
provided by the GBI cable system," says Mr. Raju Vegesna, CEO and Managing
Director, Sify Technologies Limited.

"India and the Middle East Region have long established
business ties. Today both are successful business hubs with an increasing
dependency on telecommunications services, which in turn generates increased
demand for international capacity," said Mr. Ahmed Mekky, Board Member and
CEO of GBI. "Today's agreement with Sify will enable GBI to fulfill our
mission to connect the world to the Gulf through the eastern route to India
as the Gateway to Asia and the western shores of the USA."

"GBI Cable System will provide industry leading secure and
direct connectivity to all the Gulf countries as well as to Egypt, Africa and
Europe. The new generation technology and class leading architecture of the
GBI cable system will take telecommunication services in India to the next
level. This will complement our objective of providing quality services to
our customers and partners," says P J Nath, Executive President - Enterprise
Business, Sify Technologies Limited.

Scheduled to launch in 2011, the GBI cable system will connect all the
Gulf countries via a core ring, which can re-route traffic, thereby
increasing resilience. With a design capacity of up to 5 terabits per second
on certain cable sections, the GBI Cable System will have the capability to
meet the rapid growth in demand that has been forecast for traffic
originating and terminating in Gulf.
